What Are the Drivers Transforming the Food Thickeners Market?
The anticipated surge in the food thickeners market is attributed to its widespread use in the food and beverage sector. This sector encompasses enterprises involved in food processing, packaging, distributing packaged and fresh meals, as well as both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.

The sector is slated to grow from INR 5.69 trillion ($68 billion) to INR 7.76 trillion ($92 billion) by 2028. This increase signifies a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1% from 2024 to 2028, indicating the sector's robustness and significance in India's economy. Hence, the extensive utilization of food thickeners in food and drinks is a key driver for the expansion of the food thickener market.
